Hey everyone! I was just wondering what you guys are taking this upcoming semester. We can reply here and just check up on each other! I am taking Chemistry, Microbiology, Statistics, and Nutrition! I am prepared to whoop this semester's butt!!! Lol :) also has anyone taken Stats yet? Any pointers? Was it hard? What about the other classes I'm taking? Let's discuss!!!

Hi Brenay! Stats, nutrition, and chemistry aren't pre-reqs for my ADN program, but I have 5 semesters of general chem and organic chem under my belt from my first Bachelors, and I have to say that chemistry was exceedingly difficult for me. That being said, I've never had to take a stats class, so I'm not really sure how difficult that is.
I'm taking A&P II, Developmental Psychology, Interpersonal Communications, and an Intro to Anthropology class (GPA fluffer, so I can be full time and receive my full financial aid benefits). I wanted to go ahead and take my Medical Microbiology class this semester as well, but we can't take it until A&P II is complete. I finished all of my pre-reqs last semester, so everything (except anthropology) I'm taking now are co-requisites for the ADN program.
I wish you the best of luck this semester!

I'm taking A&P I, Microbiology, Biomedical Ethics, College Algebra, English Comp II, and Developmental Psychology.
A&P I and College Algebra are the last of my pre-reqs, the rest are co-reqs I'm completing so I won't have to do them once I'm in the program, if I'm accepted for fall admission. I plan to finish up A&P II over the summer, and I'll be completely done with pre-reqs and co-reqs, with the exception of Statistics, which I'll take in the summer of 2014, since my ADN program doesn't hold any nursing classes over the summer.

Hi everyone!!!
This semester, I'm taking Anatomy and Physiology 1, Developmental Psych, Nutrition, and Argument-Based Research. I also have to do CNA certification and CPR (required by my program prior to submitting application) so I can apply to my program at the end of this semester. After this semester I only have Microbiology and A&P2 to take-- my school selects students for their program competitively, using points based on GPA and TEAS score. I should have enough points to reasonably hope for acceptance provided I keep getting good grades!!! Should be crazy busy, but exciting!!!!

Hi, this semester is the last of my pre-reqs! I am taking Microbiology, American Government, World History and "What do you Really Know About Health care?" (that last one is a requirement the University threw in this year) I also am doing my CNA cert at night and on Saturdays the first month of classes. This is going to be a busy month, but I am hoping things calm down after I am done with CNA training.

You must be a very good and determined student! Best of luck to you, I see that you are not too worried about it and that is the attitude to have.
I am taking A&P 1, Microbiology, and medical terminology. I start on the 14th and I am ready to kick this semester's butt as well! Good luck everybody.

I would be out of my mind concerned (and likely not tackling such a heavy load), but I've taken A&P and Micro before (both with heavy loads) and did fine in both courses, so I have a background. I'm only taking them again at this school because I'm a transfer student and these specific science credits wouldn't transfer (conflict with the type of labs and credit hours, and blah blah blah). I loved A&P, but I thought Micro was a BEAST. I'm not looking foward to taking it again, lol. Good luck to you as well!

I am taking A&P I, Statistics, Growth & Development, and World History. Taking A&P 2 in the summer, and Micro in the Fall. My school requires completion of A&P 2 to take Micro. Jealous of those of you who can take it concurrently!
